    United States celebrates a goal by forward Emma Sears (26) late in the second half of the match against Iceland at Geodis Park.

    The United States Women's National Soccer Team rallied for a 3-1 win over Iceland on Sunday in an International Friendly in Nashville.

    One of the big stars of the match was Emma Sears, making her debut with the USWNT. Sears scored a goal in stoppage time and also added an assist in the come-from-behind win that saw the USWNT score three goals in 23 minutes to overcome what had been a 1-0 deficit.

    Here is a look at her goal in the 93rd minute of the match.

    Sears also assisted on Lynn Williams' goal to tie the match in the 72nd minute.

    Sears subbed into the game late in the second half for her first taste of action with the national team.

    Lindsey Horan scored in the 76th minute, just four minutes after Williams tied the match, for what would ultimately be the winning goal.

    This match came just a couple of days after another 3-1 win over Iceland on Thursday night In Austin.

    They will play another International Friendly on Thursday against Argentina in Louisville, Kentucky.

    These three matches are the first for the USWNT since their gold medal victory at the Paris Olympics over the summer.
